Post weekend random

We had a lovely time visiting with our friends.  I find going to friend's challenging food-wise in that many of our friends don't eat the way I do.  Luckily (in this case), my husband does have some food restrictions, so I pack a cooler.  Sandwiches for lunch?  We'll do roll-ups.  Pasts for dinner? We brought some meat to throw on the grill.  It wasn't perfect, but it was better and we were good guests.  And they understand food sensitivities.

We got home yesterday at lunch and had leftover soup.  For dinner we decided to split a shwarma platter (roasted seasoned chicken and various vegetable salads and hummus) from an amazing deli nearby that we adore.  It was a special, fairly healthy treat.  We both eat beans occasionally - they don't seem to bother us or act as triggers.  But after that we didn't feel the need for any snacks.

There were some issues with the a/c hub is installing for me, so he decided to postpone his departure for another day.  We are both really dreading it.  Enough said.

We had a couple of ciders watching the game and there are a couple left, but I have no plans to buy an alcohol for the rest of the month.  I'm going to be sad enough without voluntarily consuming a depressent (which makes me gain weight!).

I hope you have a good day.  As the saying goes "Tough times don't last, but tough people do."

There is an Israeli place here that is amazing! I'd never had it before we moved here. Except for the hummus, its very paleo friendly food!
